Abstract
  • Data management plans (DMPs) are a rich source of information about researchers and their research data management (RDM) knowledge, capabilities, and practices. Systematic analysis of DMPs can uncover important insights about local RDM needs, which can then inform the development or expansion of library RDM services. As part of an Institute of Museum and Library Services project, we (co-PIs at 5 research-intensive universities) have developed a rubric for the assessment of NSF DMPs. The tool is intended to facilitate and standardize the review of DMPs, and highlight gaps in proposed RDM practices that could be addressed through data services support. The main audience for the rubric is academic data services librarians, but it could be used by anyone who needs to review a DMP. In this presentation, I’ll briefly review the development of the rubric, and then share some results from an initial inter-rater comparison of 25 data management plans.
